摘要
A new type of tunnel transistor, in which electrons can tunnel through a very thin Schottky barrier between an n(+)-accumulation-layer formed just under a MOS gate for controlling the tunneling current and the Schottky metal, is proposed and demonstrated. This tunnel transistor has no threshold voltage in cathode current I-k vs. cathode voltage V-k curves. Theoretical calculations based on Stratton's tunneling theory are carried out and have trends similar to the experimental results.
